Justin Verlander on When He'd Like to Retire: 'Right Now, I'm Thinking 45'
何时退休？ Verlander: 我想投到45岁
Houston Astros ace Justin Verlander is enjoying the best year of his MLB
career, so it's little surprise the 2011 American League MVP and Cy Young
winner envisions pitching well into his 40s.
休士顿太空人王牌投手Verlander现在正在享受他目前MLB的生涯年，所以当这位2011年美
联赛扬奖投手想像他到40+的时候投球一样稳健并不意外。
"In my head, right now, I'm thinking 45," the 35-year-old Verlander said of
when he may retire, per MLB.com's Jon Paul Morosi. "I don't know if that's
realistic. I'm going to go as long as I can, until something changes."
“现在在我的脑海里，我是预期到45岁，”35岁的Verlander跟记者讲到他何时退休。“
我不知道这样的想法是不是很实际，我会一直投下去，直到事情有变化。”
Verlander is well on his way toward a second Cy Young Award based on his
start to the 2018 season. He leads all qualified pitchers in WAR (3.2), per
FanGraphs, and he's pitching better than he did during his best years with
the Detroit Tigers.
Verlander今年的表现很有可能再拿下一座赛扬奖。他在WAR的数据方面领先，他甚至比他
在底特律老虎投的还要好。
Through 12 starts, Verlander is 7-2 with a 1.11 ERA and a 2.21 FIP, per
FanGraphs. He's also averaging 10.8 strikeouts and 1.7 walks per nine
innings, both of which are on pace to be career bests.
12次先发，7-2，ERA 1.11，FIP 2.12，平均九局可以拿下10.8个三振，保送只有1.7个，
两项数据都是生涯最佳。
Playing until age 45 is a lofty goal but one that is attainable. Randy
Johnson and Roger Clemens both retired after turning 45, while Nolan Ryan was
46 when he made his final MLB start.
投到45岁或许是个困难的目标，但不是不可能达成。Randy Johnson跟Roger Clemens都是
在45岁才退休，Nolan Ryan甚至投到46岁。
Health will be a big factor in whether Verlander can pitch another 10 years.
He told Morosi he thought his career was in jeopardy because he felt
discomfort in his throwing arm during a start in August 2014. But Verlander
avoided major surgery, and he recounted how he approached the subsequent
offseason with a different mindset.
健康状况会是Verlander能不能再战10年的主要因素，Verlander跟记者说在2014年时，他
投球的手臂有些不适，他本来以为他的投球生涯要完蛋了。但是，Verlander没动大手
术，然后他讲到隔年休赛季的时候他如何调适。
"I learned a ton about my body and maintenance," Verlander said. "Now I take
it upon myself to maintain everything that I gained in that offseason. If
some kinks in the chain pop up along the way, I'll call [physical therapist
Annie Gow] and talk to her. I'll address it myself. I know a lot of my
weaknesses. I address them almost daily, to try to keep on top of it.
Obviously, I got into that position [before]. I want to stay away from going
back."
“我学到了很多如何维持我身体健康的知识，”Verlander说。“现在我会把那年休赛季
所学到的都用上，如果出了什么样的状况，我会打电话给我的物理治疗师，跟她讨论，我
会把状况都列出来。我最知道我自己身体的弱点在哪里，我每天都会提醒自己，然后特别
注意那些状况。很明显的，我以前搞砸过，现在我只想避免同样的状况再发生。”
Since becoming an everyday MLB player in 2006, Verlander has made 30-plus
starts in 11 out of 12 seasons. Combine that durability with his continued
dominance, and pitching until he's 45 isn't out of the question.
从2006年正式踏入MLB，12年内，Verlander在11个赛季先发30+场，有这样的宰制力以及维
持健康状态，投到45岁对Verlander来说并非遥不可及。
